    Obviously government making cut backs on the heating bills to try to pay the civil servants.

    Maybe a complaint to GB is in order?

    Martin you could try to switch your central heating on...admittedly this comes at a price but is marginally cheaper than moving to a warmer climate.

    Anyone who has had flu would never confuse it with a cold.;)

    As an ex flu sufferer (many years ago) I've made sure I've had the flu jab every year since. It costs around £10 from Superdrug and some supermarkets.

    I hope you're feeling better soon Martin..................and I hope you'll have the flu jab every winter from now on.

  • I couldnt agree with you more, Martin. I really hate the cold weather and can never get used to it. Due to my existing health issues, I'm offered the flu jab for free every winter, but I still get lingering colds; had one for a few weeks now, one which was at its worst at Christmas!! I crank up the heating in my bedroom and use an SAD lamp to help. If I could afford it, I'd move to Australia or Los Angeles during the colder months.

    Tee hee hee, this blog title is rather relevant to us at the moment with a boiler that has decided to ring in the new year by breaking down. Today. Of all days. :wall:

    *grumbles about how the boiler is only a few years old and how they don't make them like they used to*

    I blame it on the EU! Perhaps we could put in a claim under human rights - ie the right to warm weather - especially when we are ill!:rotfl::rotfl:
